I'm all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

but nobody is contradicting that

Fair enough. Fashion can mean a lot, if I would have known about Lizzie Mecier Descloux and her sense of fashion in my teens, my life would have been very different

Sioux is a fashion icon...that people who aren't even into music would like to emulate her is a testament to the power of her presentation

I don't like this revisionism about this

God damn it where's that avatar of you I told WWWP to use? I want it right now.

Oh yeah... as attested by, among others, the 1982 video for Strange Little Girl, which I can't embed here cause I'm still short of 15 posts, I'm told watch?v=4-YqO1AMrms

My own fashion icon was the Stranglers singer: lots of leather jackets; black suit jackets with black jeans and sneakers; rain coats with sneakers... pretty basic stuff (though in hindsight I wonder if some people thought the inspiration was Dylan Klebold rather than some British postpunk guy).

Plus I loved Blue Sunshine-era Smith and Severin, they looked really cool in the photoshoots for that album.

Lol she PMed me asking for a new avatar so I made that avatar and told her not to tell anyone why she put it up or where she got it from.

I had some punk compilation with a live version of this song that blew the studio version out of the water.

Haven't been able to identify which one it was out of all the live versions that are on YT, maybe what you hear on a CD is one thing and on YT another, plus it was 15 years ago... But it was perfect.
